Florida Lease / Rental Law: Tenant Disturbance

[Alexi Echarte]

Good Morning BP,

Let me start by saying this is in Florida for reference to Florida Law. I have tenants (young couple) in my condo who have caused a disturbance to other neighbors in the complex. The disturbance lead to one of the tenants actually going to jail for the night (the woman). Due to my initial instinct of the young couple prior to going to contract, I had them pay 5 months rent and had both their parents co-sign.

I received an email from the HOA Manager regarding the disturbance and sent a similar email to the tenants after I discussed what happened with the HOA Manager and both tenants. All three stories seemed to align.

This morning I received a second email from the HOA Manager stating there was a second disturbance early this morning and may result in eviction.

I want the tenants out at this point but I also know they have rights as well considering they paid the first 5 months rent.

Anyone have any feedback related to this?

Thank you -Alexi
